Varselstiden
Varselstiden refers to a period of unease and foreboding that preceded significant events, often interpreted as warnings or omens. This concept is found in various cultural traditions and historical contexts, where unusual natural phenomena, strange dreams, or peculiar coincidences were believed to signal impending change or disaster. In a European context, it can be associated with the time leading up to major conflicts, famines, or political upheavals, where heightened anxiety manifested in a search for signs of the future.
The interpretation of what constitutes a "varsel" is highly subjective and depends on the prevailing beliefs
While often associated with historical events, the idea of varselstiden can also apply to personal experiences,
